It has special significance.The official will display more than 180,000 propaganda materials in more than 5,000 locations, the scale is the crown of the years.
Chen Guoji pointed out that some activities were sponsored by all sectors of society, and the official did not calculate the co -spending.He welcomes tourists in mainland China to participate in the event, hoping to celebrate the National Day while promoting local consumption in Hong Kong.
Chen Guoji said: "When they come to Hong Kong for dinner, the restaurant will not check the ID card before providing discounts. You can also enjoy half price when buying movie tickets and do not view passports. We hope to come to Hong Kong more.Local. "

But he is not very optimistic about whether Hong Kong's National Day event this year can attract passengers. "The discount must still be hard. National Day discounts can only temporarily stop bleeding.The problem will only perform more and more "
